4-1-2 Xpress Recovery2 Introduction

Xpress Recovery2 is designed to provide quick backup and restora- tion of hard disk data. Supporting Microsoft operating systems including Windows XP/2000/NT/98/Me and DOS, and file systems including FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS, Xpress Recovery2 is able to back up data
